Chapter 123: The Password Was Her Birthday

Tina detected a hint of teasing in his voice. As she looked up, her gaze landed on his lips, now slightly more vibrant due to their moisture, and she felt momentarily dazed. She recalled the previous night, feeling her cheeks start to warm. Jared Farrell glanced at her and noticed how she delicately sipped her soup, her rosy lips nearly capturing his entire mind with their allure. He couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart. Recalling her mocking remark about his kissing skills from last night, he asked with a hint of jealousy, "Tina, have you ever had a boyfriend before?"

Tina blinked, surprised, "No, why?"

"Nothing, just that your kissing is pretty good," Jared Farrell remarked, pretending to be casual, though his tone betrayed a hint of sourness. He thought to himself that just because his girl had never dated didn't mean she hadn't kissed anyone. The mere thought of another man having kissed Tina sent an uncontrollable wave of jealousy through him.
